I'll LOL too, dry air corrosion is pretty slow. And the retaining pins are not zinc which is why they hang on the under water shafts for so long even though they are half or more gone.
If not a shaft zinc, then one can use other 2" metal clamping devices if they so choose. Hard to beat the zincs though with them already having a pretty good 2" shaft connection design.
